Jensen Huang’s comments at last week’s CES about quantum computing being decades away stirred up discussion within the quantum industry.

Therefore, Huang's prediction that quantum computers won't go mainstream for 15 to 30 years sounds reasonable. It took Nvidia about two decades for its gaming and professional visualization graphics processing units (GPUs) to evolve into AI accelerators for data centers.

Microsoft dubs now the advent of a reliable quantum computing era. Quantum computing stocks are ripping higher on Wednesday morning.

Quantum stocks like Rigetti, IonQ and D-Wave Quantum saw steep losses after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said quantum computers are decades away.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's sobering assessment of quantum computing's timeline sent the space into a tailspin last week. During a question-and-answer session with analysts, Huang suggested that useful quantum computers were likely 15 to 30 years away.
